Take A Mental Break This Weekend


By John Bebow - October 2, 2008

By definition, the Fresh Thoughts readers I know are an uptight crowd who probably care too much, worry too much, and work too much. So we're probably all a bit too white-knuckled over the news of the past two weeks.

Here's a thought....

Stop worrying for a moment this weekend and take in just a few bites of all the fall splendor Michigan has to offer.

Shake off that vacant Michigan house sold on e-Bay for $1.75. And shake off the constant perception that Michigan isn't a cool place to be.

You want culture? There's plenty of it to be had this weekend...

Check out the farmers' markets galore in the Grand Rapids area. Or check out a diverse offering of concerts in Southeast Michigan. Or, get outside and enjoy the Kalamazoo Art Hop. Or, spend a little of your money before it's all gone at the Petoskey Shopping Scramble. Or check out a pumpkin run, lobster boil or grouse tournament in the Upper Peninsula.

Get out an enjoy it!
